Closing tvar needed

Hi @GVarnum-WMF: Could you please add a closing tvar in T:34 for tvar "1"? --Ameisenigel (talk) 12:39, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Ameisenigel - apologies for that error - all fixed now. Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 16:13, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
